Young Adult Horse Camp Weekend: For older teens and young adults who love horseback riding but just can’t get away for an entire week, this weekend will be ideal. You will arrive Friday evening and pick out your horse, spend time riding in our arena, and sit around the campfire that evening. The next morning you’ll head back to the Ranch, saddle up and head off for a beautiful ride. You’ll have lunch out on the trail, spend some time in Bible study, then enjoy the camp’s many other facilities. That evening you’ll take another ride after a steak dinner cooked on the open fire. On Sunday, you’ll have one last ride, pack up and join other campers for 10:00 a.m worship.
Date: June 14-16 Cost: $200 Deposit: $100 |

Horse Outreach Program- Servant Event We are looking for at least one group to help us get our Horse Outreach Program ready for the summer of 2013. Participants will help groom horses, clean-up our tack, build campsites, clear trails, and generally help us get the horses ready. There will be at least an hour or two of riding each day. The cost is higher because of more travel, offsite meals, and horseback riding.We will have Bible study, devotions around the campfire, and our head wrangler will share God’s gift of creation as demonstrated through the horses and natural surroundings the servants will experience. They will also come to understand the importance of our Horse Outreach Program to several hundred youth who participate in it. Dates and Rates:
June 2-7 (Sunday-Friday) $250 |

Advanced Wrangler and Family Horse Camp: Our horseback camps are designed to provide fun, energy, inspiration, and a sense of the power of our creator God. Trails are available for riders of various experiences, but we also want to challenge you to depend on your horse and your own abilities. Camping out overnight provides a wonderful atmosphere as you drift off to sleep listening to nature and horses whinnying in the distance. You’ll enjoy the cookout meals prepared by our wrangler and will experience God’s creation in a way few are able to in this day and age. Individuals and families (children should be 12 and older with riding experience) are invited to participate. This is a great adventure for young adults and those who still feel young. Ages:12 and older Dates: August 18-23. Cost:$400 per person |
